.... I have not checked lately but most batteries now are made by one or two suppliers and they build the battery based on the customers standards.... there are some better than others and naturally they cost a little more.
I prefer the Optima and the Diehard.

My daughter just changed out the battery in her Toyota Camry and it has been in the car for just over 6 years and was still starting. I just advised her, since she hauls two kids, to go ahead and change it before getting stranded at a bad time!!

I suspect O'Reilly's battery is the same as some at Auto Zone or Advance Auto if you check the "numbers" on them. They are all slick at advertising so take it slow!!
Many times its just the labels.

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you smile
